The SOP manuals have been completed through many workshops and meetings held for revision of the manuals. They had not been revised since 2002 and thus this is a big achievement for appropriate daily testing operations in the laboratories. The printing was supported by the Project and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

The Ministry is planning to start disseminating the manuals in the end of this month to all the laboratories in Zambia.
